European Union: CJEU destroys the EU-US Data Protection Shield: Employer Will Have to be More Careful when Transferring Personal Data to the US
In the Schrems II decision (C-311/18) of July 2020, the CJEU invalidates Commission Decision 2016/1250 on the adequacy of the protection provided by the “EU-US Data Protection Shield”. This means that personal data cannot be transferred quasi automatically to the US any longer, as the US does not provide an adequate level of data protection (which was the case according the Commission). This decision can have important implications for Multinational Enterprises when they, e.g. want to transfer employee data to their seats in the US.
